Have a chance to get a good deal on a couple of their compasses. I am just starting to build up some outdoor gear and a decent compass always seems to be on everyones list.

I can get two so which ones would be good to learn on and used as all around units?

Thank you

I have a Suunto MC-2, and like it very much. It's very comparable to the Brunton/Silva Ranger type 15 (also have), and which is
generally my "go to" compass. I've been carrying the MC-2 for about a year now, and like it as much, if not more than the Type 15.

It's expensive, but if you shop around, you can find a good deal. Remember, "Buy once, cry once."

I agree that the MC-2 is great. I have several of the MC-2G GLobal version, which works both in the North and South hemispheres.
